Addition of arachidonic acid (AA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) to infant formula promotes visual and neural development. This study was designed to determine whether the source of dietary long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LCPUFA) affected overall animal health and safety. Piglets consumed ad libitum from 1 to 16 d of age a skim milk-based formula with different fat sources added to provide 50% of the metabolizable energy. Treatment groups were as follows: control (CNTL; no added LCPUFA), egg phospholipid (PL), algal/fungal triglyceride (TG) oils, TG plus PL (soy lecithin source) added to match phospholipid treatment (TG + PL) and essential fatty acid deficient (EFAD). Formulas with LCPUFA provided 0.6 and 0.3 g/100 g total fatty acids as AA and DHA, respectively. CNTL piglets had 40% longer ileal villi than PL piglets (P < 0.03), but the TG group was not different from the CNTL group. Gross liver histology did not differ among any of the formula-fed groups (P > 0.1). Apparent dry matter digestibility was 10% greater in CNTL, TG and TG + PL groups compared with PL piglets (P < 0.002). No differences in alanine aminotransferase were detected among treatments, but aspartate aminotransferase was elevated (P < 0.03) in PL piglets compared with TG + PL piglets. Total plasma AA concentration was greater in the TG group compared with CNTL piglets (P < 0.05). Total plasma DHA concentrations were greater in TG piglets compared with PL (P < 0.06) or CNTL (P < 0.02) piglets. These data demonstrate that the algal/fungal TG sources of DHA and AA may be a more appropriate supplement for infant formulas than the egg PL source based on piglet plasma fatty acid profiles and apparent dry matter digestibilities.
在婴儿配方奶粉中添加花生四烯酸(AA)和二十二碳六烯酸(DHA)可促进视觉和神经发育。本研究旨在确定膳食长链多不饱和脂肪酸(LCPUFA)的来源是否会影响动物的整体健康和安全性。仔猪在1至16日龄时自由采食以脱脂牛奶为基础的配方奶粉,添加不同的脂肪来源以提供50%的可代谢能量。处理组如下:对照组(CNTL;不添加LCPUFA)、鸡蛋磷脂(PL)、藻类/真菌甘油三酯(TG)油、添加TG加PL(大豆卵磷脂来源)以匹配磷脂处理组(TG + PL)和必需脂肪酸缺乏组(EFAD)。含有LCPUFA的配方奶粉分别提供0.6和0.3 g/100 g总脂肪酸作为AA和DHA。CNTL组仔猪的回肠绒毛比PL组仔猪长40%(P < 0.03),但TG组与CNTL组无差异。任何配方奶粉喂养组的肝脏大体组织学均无差异(P > 0.1)。与PL组仔猪相比,CNTL、TG和TG + PL组的表观干物质消化率高10%(P < 0.002)。各处理组之间未检测到丙氨酸转氨酶的差异,但与TG + PL组仔猪相比,PL组仔猪的天冬氨酸转氨酶升高(P < 0.03)。与CNTL组仔猪相比,TG组的总血浆AA浓度更高(P < 0.05)。与PL组(P < 0.06)或CNTL组(P < 0.02)仔猪相比,TG组仔猪的总血浆DHA浓度更高。这些数据表明,基于仔猪血浆脂肪酸谱和表观干物质消化率,藻类/真菌来源的TG作为DHA和AA可能比鸡蛋PL来源更适合作为婴儿配方奶粉的补充剂。
